NEX fisheye converter comp with Vivitar 7mm F/3.5 fisheye
Whoops, I forgot to post this with the NEX fisheye converter review, so here it is now. I’ve cropped the images in four different areas and added them to the gallery so you can see the quality of each lens without going through the full size images. The Sony NEX-C3 was used with the fisheye converter, along with the Sony A580 and Vivitar 7mm F/3.5 fisheye.
The NEX fisheye converter looks pretty good in the center and right side…
Sony NEX fisheye review
The Sony VCL-ECF1 (review here) is a cool little add-on lens for people wanting a fisheye experience using the Sony NEX system. While this converter is not an optical masterpiece, it actually works well, and can be very fun if you know how to use it. It’s not for ‘getting it all in’ in a general sense, so don’t use it simply as you would a wide angle lens. Check out my boring Sony 16/2.8 fisheye review for ideas, or Flickr for interesting fisheye compositions, some good, some bad.
Sad, but true, for about the same price of the Sony 16/2.8 fisheye lens, you can get the Sony NEX-5N, 16mm pancake lens, and the fisheye converter, which works almost as good!
